    9.30pm this evening, the 2011 film Contagion is showing.

    Prophetic and perhaps even usefully informative film.

    Thanks to @Jenny namaste for the information :)

    I saw it in our copy of the Review, a supplement with the Saturday Telegraph? Another mystery.....
    It is printed in "Films of the week" page 21, in the centre ( stapled) page.

      Pound to a penny that they cancelled it in case someone was offended. We seem to have professionally offended people nowadays.

          Possibly, but it may well have been put into the schedule back in October or something and it has only now been spotted?

          Which is why it should be cancelled now.
          Its not about offending anyone its about not being stupid bearing in mind the reactions we are getting now.
          Do we really need it?
          The Hollywood version?

            Aye, I see where you are coming from @pete - sadly, folks seem to be getting all whipped up over this thing, and the last thing that is needed is more kindling on the fire.

              Have you been watching the main channels tonight - prime time slots?

              Corona How to Self Isolate Yourself
              How to keep your house Clean
              Dispatches - Corona - Can the Supermarkets Cope - might as well start the stampede now !!!

              As an OAP, not watched a single one though, why take on more doom and gloom when we know whats coming.

                Hi @Fat Controller , are you sure you've got the right channel ? ITV doesn't show films on a Sunday night. At 9 PM on a sunday it's a drama series called " Belgravia " , it's been on a couple of weeks now.

                Hi FC, sorry about that.

                Can you get cream for that ?

                ( Being a facilitator thingy)
